Andronopoulos Surname Meaning
The Greek surname Andronopoulos (Ανδρονόπουλος) is a patronymic surname formed from an ancestral personal name such as Andron (Άνδρων), Andronikos (Ανδρόνικος), or a related Andr- name and the suffix -opoulos (-όπουλος), meaning “descendant of.” The root derives from aner/andros (ἀνήρ/ἀνδρός), meaning “man” or “male.” Andronopoulos therefore essentially means “descendant of Andron/Andronikos.” The -opoulos ending is particularly widespread in the Peloponnese and represents one of the most recognizable Greek patronymic surname formations.
